Document Management can now be done electronically using a system that has been designed using document management software
. This software is designed to help store and archive your documents and other important information.
The systems that are used to do this are now very common in businesses and schools, as they are basically an electronic filing cabinet. Document management can also be referred to as content management, as the documents stored can be anything from media files, video files and audio files.
Document management systems are stored in computers and are designed to be a back up for any physical documents you have, as there is always the possibility that an important file or piece of paper could go missing. Digitised document storage also means that less physical space is taken up in your office.
A good document management system will allow you store full or partly completed documents. Digital documents can be stored in a location that can be accessed by many users, or they can be stored securely and can be given password protection. This is to prevent your documents from being seen by any unauthorised individuals, and enable to you adhere to the Data Protection Act.
This form of electronic document management is far better as you can find all the information you require at the touch of a button instead of searching though a disorganised filing system, which is likely to have information missing. The information can be organised easily and the amount of documents that can be stored is endless. There are also many different document management software tools that can be used for additional features.
